If I have a function foo that takes a slice as input, and I

void foo(int[]) {}
void main() {
foo([1, 2, 3]);
int[3] tmp = [4, 5, 6];
foo(tmp);
}
There's a known issue that the function foo takes the slice of
stack allocated data. Today some peoples argue that it is
unsafe operation and should be disallowed in @safe code.

I think there is consensus that in @safe code this should be
blocked.
